This little Mail.app plugin did what Apple couldn't in years. Send attachments so that other mail client receives them correctly.

Excellent software, saves me a lot of time as it handles the mail attachments as it should be. Especially when you are mailing attachments to Outlook-/Exchange-Users in larger enterprises you will encounter usually problems as the recipients can't save the file in a secured environment. With attachment tamer it simply works.

I am using it for years now and it was always updated for free, the developer is very responsive, I received my lost serial number in less than 30 minutes. This is a software I always recommend to new Mac Users as a must-have.

I can't find an e-mail address to the developer on his web site,
so I have to post my enquiry here, not a review then.

After the resent Lion update to 10.7.3 the app is disabled.
When can we expect an app update from Lokiware?

Dear Macmuffin, The latest version 3.0.10 is already compatible with Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3. It has been available both on my web site and on MacUpdate for about a month. You can find my email address on the front page of my web site and in the support section of http://lokiware.info/Attachment-Tamer

Macmuffin replied on 03 Feb 2012

That sounds good.
Although I got a notice after the restart that
"Attachment Tamers is disabled due to incompatibility".

Lokiware (developer) replied on 03 Feb 2012

If you are getting that notice, it means that you have not installed the current version. Here is how to install the update:

1. Download the current version from http://lokiware.info/

2. Open the downloaded Installer.

3. Click the Install (or Update) button.

4. Quit Mail if prompted to do it.

I hope this helps. If you need further support, please contact me via email.

One of the best software investments I've ever made. It's reliable, flexible, and always compatible with Apple Mail. In fact, if an Apple executive is reading this, I suggest you hire Adam, the developer, to redo Apple Mail entirely. That would be cool.

Hey there, just a quick question here: I've been roaming around the net to find a solution for what appears to be an ongoing bug in Mail 5.0 (and onwards). It concerns not being able to delete attachments from sent messages (the 'remove attachments' option in the menu is grayed out). Mail doesn't seem to recognize these messages as having attachments. There are a couple of workarounds (too much of a hassle really), so I was wondering if this app will do the job? Thanks!

I know about this annoying bug and have reported it to Apple several months ago. Here's my post about on Apple Discussions:

https://discussions.apple.com/message/16023062#16023062

I recommend to everyone annoyed by this to send a bug report to Apple too (see the post above) or at least send feedback via Mail > Provide Mail Feedback... Whichever option you choose, make sure to include a reference to the original bug report ID 9906117 to make the tracking easier for Apple.

It is a great enhancement to Mail.app: no more worrying whether users of MS Exchange and/or Outlook will be able to see and open my attachments. It is possible to avoid this by changing settings in Mail.app, but then you will not be able to send RTF-messages, just plain text.

And, while I never use that much of textual extras, an occasional numbered or dotted list, a word in bold or italic, will greatly enhance the readability of your text.

World-class support! I reported a bug and within 2 hours, Adam quashed that critter and published a fix/updater.

The app works as promised, is rock-solid, and user-friendly.

Truly a five star program. Bravo!

I have noticed that the little paperclip icon that tells me my messages have attachments is not showing up in my mail list for messages that clearly have attachments in them.

Is this a known issue?

This is a known problem in Mac OS X 10.7.x Lion. It happens regardless of Attachment Tamer being installed. It usually happens with sent messages, but other messages may be affected too. I reported it to Apple in August, but for whatever reason it does not seem like a high-priority issue for Apple.

Per Adam's remark, nothing not associated with iPhones and iPads seems like a high-priority issue for Apple. Mac users are definitely cash cows, not much more at the moment despite the fact that our dollars and promotion built the brand.

I bought this software while looking for a way to make a one page document or one photo show up as an icon in an email attachment. Apple Mail will do that, but it doesn't always stay that way. Attachment Tamer DOES!! I wouldn't be without it and was notified by the developer yesterday that it is now updated. I updated and it still works perfectly. It is even updated for OS 10.7.

It's a 5 star for me.

Highly recommended. It does much more that I need. It is worth every penny. One thing I forgot to add is that Attachment Tamer lets you place the attachment in the email where you prefer it to be.
